All On Contract

Chapter 31 - Controlling Managers

Marshall's P.O.V:
I wake up to a loud smashing noise and look up to find Karla looking down at the varse that she just broke. She kneels down and picks up the pieces and when she stands up she see's that i'm awake.

"Shit. I didn't mean to wake you up." She whispers loudly. "Is Tessa awake?" She asks.

"I don't.." I trail of when I realise that she's laying down right ontop of me.

Fuck, how the hell did we get here? We came back from Jay Z's party last night and then we...Wait when did we even fucking get back? I don't remember getting through the front door.

"She's not. Good." Karla says. "This was her favourite varse that Chris got her damn it." She huffs.

"When did you-" I start but she cuts me off.

"Now he's going to think that I did this on purpose. Oh fuck sakes." She says getting angry.

"Why would he think that?" I ask as I look at Tessa peacefully sleeping ontop of me.

"Because he's holding a grudge with me." She shrugs. "I shouldn't have you told you that, oh god. Please don't tell Tessa that me and Chris are not on talking terms." She sighs as she covers her face.

"Don't worry. I won't." I mumble. Karla was all over the place. Just when she's about to walk out she knocks over her coffee cup that she just placed on the floor.

"Oh. No." She gasps. The white fury carpet starts to absorb the coffee. "I'm fucked...I'm fucked...Shit, i'm fucked." She curses.

"You're fucked big time." Chris says walking in with a cup of coffee. They were both still dressed in their hospital uniform so i'm guessing they just ended their shift at the hospital.

"I thought we weren't talking." Karla huffs and turns towards her fiancé.

"We're not. Why do you think i'm not helping you." He shrugs.

"Screw you." Karla mumbles.

It's too early for their bullshit.

"Guess you two made up then." Chris says turning towards me.

"What?" I ask in confusion.

"You and Tessa. I'm sure she was avoiding you." Chris says.

"We just had a little argument." I clear my throat awkwardly. I'm still suprised Tessa hasn't told Chris abut this whole engagement thing being fake.

"Little?" Karla chuckles and shakes her head. I guess Tessa told Karla everything then.

As Chris and Karla start to argue, Tessa starts to slowly wake up and twist and turn in her sleep as she lays ontop of me. She clutchs onto my shirt and burys her face in my shirts as she mutters under her breath.

"What time did you get back?" Karla asks after Chris leaves the room.

"Uhr, can't remember." I mumble.

"You had too much to smoke and drink, hu? Well that explains why she's ontop of you and not sitting 10 miles away from you after what you said to her." Karla says making me roll my eyes.

"Tessa's already forgiven me for that." I tell her.

"Was that when she was drunk and high? Or sober? Because believe the way she was crying over the phone to me sounded like she would never ever forgive you." Karla snaps.

"She was sober then." I mumble.

"She just probably felt sorry for you, Marshall." Karla tuts. "Tessa's my bestfriend. You can't just be a prick to her and say all those things because you thought she was trying to make you look bad!" Karla adds.
